Yup, calling bs on the article, since a pc is both cheaper and easier than a phone. Besides, if you know how to navigate a window and type into a textbox (both required for YouTube) you know how to write a digital form
This article is made up drama
You mean like how you fully purchased a premium account?
I wonder why there are no laws against eforced, unilateral contract adjustments like this. Especially considering “no ads” was an explicit part of the original purchase
You’re right that I inverted it numerically
Though, that’s a communication thing. White people are a minority worldwide but never referred to as such. I used the standard way to refer to the different races even though that is statistically incorrect in the hope of it being more directly obvious what I meant
He means Apartheid
That one went so far that south Africa is the only country to voluntarily unilateraly give up its nuclear arsenal when a minority risked getting to power
Coin
Look, the glasses are nice and all, but they don’t give you a 50% change to win the lottery and randomly realise a way to prove/disprove the Riemann hypothesis every two weeks
I wonder how this works with elections. In my country, the votes are counted within 12 hours. When I’m voting on a party, I am attempting to make said party the largest one. Does the coin just give me a 50% chance to unilaterally decide my government every election cycle?
Edit: oh shit, it’s not 50% chance, but 100% after it came into effect once. The first time it lands on heads, try to guess the next flip’s outcome by guessing it would be heads. Since the coin is in effect, this guess is correct, even though the next coin will only be flipped in two weeks
In other words, the coin just gives you reality warping for halve a day every two weeks
God I hate untagged YouTube links. You think you’re clicking on an image or an article, but nope! And now YouTube thinks you watched a random video and your recommendations get infected with garbage outside of your normally watched channels
I feel the opposite. Still all but one opinion gets drowned out. It’s just that now the opinion that survives is the one that screams the loudest rather than the mainstream one
I would consider that a downside tbh
Holding spacebar pressed used to play the video at half speed, due to pausing and unpausing extremely quickly
Now it plays the video at double speed, meaning that I have to set playback speed manually when I want to watch in slow motion
I can see this being preferable in the long run, but damn if it isn’t annoying in the present
That’s a remarkably terrible Wikipedia article
Did he edit his comment? The current version doesn’t accuse Altman of any felony

Botanically they are. Culinary they are not.
Some languages split the word “fruit” up in those two cases. In Dutch for example, the botanical definition of fruit translates to “vrucht” whereas the culinary definition translates to “fruit”.
So, a tomato is a “vrucht” but it’s not “fruit”
Correct. That is why I am not switching
Besides, the EU is shown time and time again that it will protect its citizens if the megacorps overstep their boundaries, so the claim that chrome holds too much power is bs
Correct, it matters to me
So, as long as Firefox doesn’t really offer something that in my opinion outways all it’s UX issues, I am not inclined to switch
Looking at my score, appearantly that is offensive though
Thank you
I agree
I’m using chrome, sponsorblock and adblock+. Google hasn’t told me to turn it off yet.
Maybe it’s because I’m in the EU?
If it starts becoming a problem, I intend to look into writing a pull request to fix the firefox UX issues
It does give a weird form of comfort to see Lemmy become more like Reddit every day
I love the irony that people nuke your comment
